Overview of comments:
The limited number of comments received were uniformly supportive both
about content and logistics.
I learnt about a new, amasing application of GPS.
I made contacts to new people and enjoyed that the number of
participants was small enough to talk to nearly anyone.
All in all the workshop was worth the trip.
My only disappointment is that the topic evidently not yet
is "hot" for mathematicians.
Selected comments
Content: The workshop was very interesting - it gave me a chance to
think about GPS issues outside of the projects I am currently
involved in. I did get some new ideas and found several
good references from the mathematical talks.
Logistics: Yes, everything was wonderful in terms of logistics.
The IMA support was perfect.
